Editor's Note: Two days before passing, I spoke to Jimmy Parks. I was teasing him for switching from Democrat to Republican. I asked him how he felt being a Republican. He answered, "I still feel fair." We reminsiced about appearing on the "Gang of Four" on KTSA talk show host Jack Riccardi's show in 2008. I appeared with him twice back then. We will miss a great man and attorney who defended the little people as well as the controversial people.
